David Lingabee Songs & Songwriting

We move them with our emotion,
And we do it in our very own special way,
We cajole or laugh, or we plead or cry,
Or hold back our view, to be said another day.

We move them with our emotion,
Waiting to see, but many times we simply just sigh,
And when they don’t, we fall back inside our cloaking shield,
That is built with saddening thoughts of times gone by.

Chorus
I like to change them with my emotion,
It’s what I have that’s really me that I’d like to share,
It what I feel inside myself that’s really valuable,
It’s what I hope will make your burden much less to bear.

There are people who change the world by setting an example,
These people create an inner strength, they raise the bar,
And there are those who rant and scream to make some changes,
They feel they need to show the world that’s who they are.

Then there are those who whisper quietly and garner interest,
It seems a softer way of inviting us away from sin,
Their genuine interest that they have in what we’re doing,
Makes it so easy opening ourselves to let them in.

Chorus
I like to change them with my emotion,
It’s what I have that’s really me that I’d like to share,
It what I feel inside myself that’s really valuable,
It’s what I hope will make your burden much less to bear.

There’s a joy in moving them with your music,
It’s a thrill that you should do, it’s such an ease,
It shows you clearly you can change the world with your magic,
It shows you clearly just how powerful you really are.

There’s no mistaking, that you changed the world with music,
The ones that listen will gladly tell you what you did,
It’s so unique we naturally envy our favorite artists,
Well you can do it, you can feel it, just have a try.

Chorus
I like to change them with my emotion,
It’s what I have that’s really me that I’d like to share,
It what I feel inside myself that’s really valuable,
It’s what I hope will make your burden much less to bear.
